Caro Andrea,

aggiungo alle tue proposte di letture, l'ultimo libro di Toby Walsh che, tra le altre cose, soppesa proprio i pro e contra dei killer robot...
Qui il link al libro: https://www.blackincbooks.com.au/books/its-alive
Ne parlo con Toby e Stuart Russel dopodomani a Melbourne: http://www.medianet.com.au/releases/141447/
Cheers,
Ugo

Carissimi,

nello spirito di confronto che anima questa lista, pur sapendo che l'argomento è particolarmente controverso, mi permetto di rimandarvi a questo breve pezzo di Kenneth Anderson e Matthew Waxman, professori rispettivamente alla American University e alla Columbia Law School. Il primo in particolare si occupa dell'argomento da molto tempo:

https://www.lawfareblog.com/primer-debates-over-law-and-ethics-autonomous-weapon-systems 

"An international public debate over the law and ethics of autonomous weapon systems (AWS) has been underway since 2012, with those urging legal regulation of AWS under existing principles and requirements of the international law of armed conflict, on the one side, in argument with opponents who favor, instead, a preemptive international treaty ban on all such weapons, on the other. This Chapter provides an introduction to this international debate, offering the main arguments on each side. These include disputes over defining an AWS, the morality and law of automated targeting and target selection by machine, and the interaction of humans and machines in the context of lethal weapons of war. Although the Chapter concludes that a categorical ban on AWS is unjustified morally and legally — favoring the law of armed conflict’s existing case-by-case legal evaluation — it offers an exposition of arguments on each side of the AWS issue."

Il pezzo introduce e rimanda ad un articolo più lungo, disponibile su SSRN, e ad altri lavori che potrebbero essere utili per comprendere le posizioni in campo.

Suggerisco anche a chi fosse a digiuno degli elementi di base il libro "Moral Machines" di Wallach ed Allen, OUP (2010). Non mi risulta una edizione italiana.

A presto,

Andrea
